I ordered the 'Jack Attack' style on 8/17 and they arrived on 8/24. They look great and arrived faster than expected. Highly recommended!

“Poor quality, rebounce of one check in only five checks used”

Ching S.
11/5/23

Paper quality and print are in poor quality but I can tolerate it. So far I have used five checks, but one check I issued to our artist league was bounced back and I have to pay $7. It's embarrassing. It never happens in my banking history! The reason for rebounce was "cannot locate the account". Then I compared the Walmart checks with my previous check and found that "000" was added after my bank account number. I guess it caused some confusion.

My checks were lost in the mail which Walmart checks said to put a stop payment on said checks, my bank is charging a monthly fee for this and Walmart checks will not reimburse me for this or the checks that they lost in the mail as "they sent them without tracking and therefor have no further information".

Ridiculous do not trust them with something as important as this.

Will never order from them again.

Decided to look at other duplicate check options on internet instead of using my bank. Going with Walmartchecks.com is frustrating and less than useless. Order submitted Dec 17 with next day shipping included. It is now Jan 2,2024 and I can find no tracking info or order status on their website. Just hung up from *******432 waiting for a customer service rep, with no one answering after 1 hour. I should have researched this company. From other complaints I have read before writing this review the satisfaction rating for this company is very low. I obviously let the Walmart name trick me into trusting this company. Very foolish.

Checks are lost and there's nothing they can seem to do about it. All we could do is stop payment and they offered issue the next set of checks. However, I don't feel that that's a good idea because then I'll probably be a second set lost

I received a Walmart circular in the mail advertising their low-cost checks which turned to be high cost when placing the order. The tracking information appears to be completely bogus as it did not contain a residential address where the order should have been delivered...only the name of the city. In any event, I never received the order, although all shipping parties claimed that it was shipped and delivered. Contacted DHL who said, take it up with who you ordered the checks from. Tried contacting Walmartchecks.com by phone. Needless to say, a recording came on and put me on hold. After two hours, I hung up. I contacted my bank, who suspecting fraud, told me that I would have to open up a new account. Also, beware of these high rated reviews. I have a sneaky suspicion that they are spoof reviews from this sham of a company. Do yourself a huge favor and steer clear of this ghost check company.

Tip for consumers:
Based on my experience and other's reviews, I wouldn't give this site a second thought. Steer clear.

Not sure of the refund policy since I never received the checks, and no one could be contacted.

They apparently cancelled my order without telling me, and I had to dig around their site a week after my checks should have arrived and use the automated order status checker to figure that out, because they won't answer the phone.

I called three times, at least 30 minutes before they stopped taking calls, and after inputting my account number each time it told me that my order required special handling, the system "transferred" me with no ring tone, and gave me the automated speech, "Thank you for calling Wal-Mart Checks. Goodbye." And hung up.

I even tried calling Harland Clarke (the real business behind "Wal-Mart" checks) twice, and after putting in even more information, their automated system also hung up on me.

I've never left a review for anything in my life, and I've never been more infuriated with an experience than I have with this. I'm going to have to go through my bank statements to see if they even cancelled the charges, because I can easily already see that there was no refund deposit.

Even just a, "Yeah, sorry, your order got cancelled. We reversed the charge. Bye." Would have been enough to at least let me figure something else out.

Tip for consumers:
Don't.

When I placed my order, I carefully reviewed my info and it was correct and in proper format. When I received the checks, the dashes were left out of my phone number. Now there is a straight line of numbers, which looks horrible. Who ever reviewed my order to print it, should have either contacted me or used common sense and known it was a phone number and put the dashes in. However, they probably do not have an actual person reviewing the information, but a computer reviewing it. This is the problem with the overuse of technology, and under utilization of human workers. The computer cannot differentiate and leaves out things like dashes. The print used for my name and address is extremely small. It looks very unprofessional. Like all other product's Walmart offers, it is very low quality and I should have known better. The price is low for a reason, poor quality. You get what you pay for. Meanwhile the price of their groceries and good they sell, continue to rise and quality continues to go down. Walmart has become an extreme disappointment as well as a greedy corporation that refuses to pay workers benefits despite their billions in profits. I will use a local, small town grocery store from now on and order checks through my bank. There wasn't any place on the Walmart checks site to give feedback. That says a lot right there.

I ordered the Star Wars classic checks. They look very different than they do on the website. The pictures are very, very faded and the print quality is very cheap and looks terrible. It looks like my 8-year-old niece printed them on her computer. I immediately asked for a refund and will never order from Walmart checks again.

I Clicked an add for $7.62 Walmart Checks - Yah right-what a ripoff - can't believe Wal*Mart has their name attached to this scam. Stay Away! Bait & Switch - Free Shipping but Processing is NOT optional.

Subtotal $13.92 Shipping: INCLUDED
Processing $6.92 State Sales Tax (9.75%): $2.03 Order total:$22.87

I was pretty happy with the choices and the overall cost. I haven't received the checks yet. My complaint is that the processing fee isn't revealed until you've put time into entering your routing #, account #, etc. They lay out all the other costs very carefully, so it seems very deceptive to not reveal the processing fee until the end. The overall price still seems ok- just make it clear what you're charging the customer!

I used to order all my checks from walmart checks and they were good quality years ago. This time I ordered two designs: Star Wars Mandalorian and Kittens. Not only did they add the processing fee like other reviewers said, but the checks I received are terrible quality. They look like they were printed at 30 dpi using an inkjet printer. The designs, text, and lines are grainy and difficult to make out. My Star Wars checks weren't even cut correctly and have a border on one side as well as crushed spines.

They also couldn't even be bothered to ship the checks in a simple cardboard box. They instead shipped them in this flimsy cardstock folder with the checkbooks glued to the inside of it and they got all banged up in the mail. I'm really upset and literally could have printed better checks myself at home with my laser printer. I'm never going to buy from them again.

Ordered checks. 5 weeks later, they haven't mailed the checks or if they did mail the checks they aren't sure and they can't track them. They have no information at all. So, somewhere, someone has all of the banking information on my account, and Walmart can't do anything to determine what may have happened to them.

I would definitely not recommend using any Walmart online ordering if this is what they offer.

By the way, they said that I agreed not to be able to track the shipment. That is news to me. Why would anyone order checks and not want to know how to track them if they get lost.

Can't believe this is how Walmart operates.

Tip for consumers:
Is this really how Walmart online operates? I can't believe they put there name on this, representing this service.

This has to be by far the worst experience I've ever had with ordering checks! First off the company claims my account number was invalid so I send them a check to verify. Never get a response after 1 week. I called customer service who verified my email was received and they would send a message to check spec to have them verify. I was told to wait 24-48 hours for a confirmation to which I never got a reply. Decided to call a week later to get an update and guess what everyone is still sitting on their thumbs and not a clue what's happening. There are so many other check companies out there that would be way better to use! I would highly recommend completely avoiding Walmart checks at all cost!

The duplicate deposit books I received were very poorly bound. The white and yellow copies fall out the minute that you touch them so that it is impossible to fill them out in the book. This also means that the copies are loose rather than remaining in the book like they are supposed to. Garbage.

You can't contact them by phone. Phone will hang up after you are prompted to push 1 if you are a customer. Walmart customer service can't call them either. They only say that it is a 3rd party supplier for Walmart and they can't do anything about it. Walmart is letting 3rd party companies use the Walmart name and it is not safe.

The worst. Ordered cks for $17.10 on 12/15 through Walmart. Checked my bank acct on 12/17 the Walmart charge was there along with a charge for $131.00 for Sam's Club Checks which was not authorized. Had to get a new debit card to replace the card that was charged along with closing and reopening the bank account that the checks were fir. It's now 1/4/22 the useless checks have not been received, Sam's Club Fraud has not returned my call and Walmart Checks has not responded to my e-mail about the situation.

Placed order Feb 2021. Still haven't received checks. I emailed them May 07 and they did immediately respond saying order was sent out but they'd be happy to replace order if I'd like. I replied back in late June that yes I would like replacement order. Still waiting. Never order from them!

They charge you $6.00 after you have completed the entire process and are at the final payment page. What's the point of advertising it's cheap when they cover up the cost somewhere else. Shame on Walmart for using such tactics. Wish there was an option to pick no star for the ratings

Our community service org uses PO box for business use. Placed order online and seemed fine until product shipped. It was never received at PO box at USPS. Called and placed second re-order via customer service agent. After Non delivery replacement order - Spoke to customer service at walmart and then was told they can NOT deliver PO boxes. Product was on delivery truck and CS refused to call carrier and at least try to explain situation for some kind of resolution. This lack of communication wasted 5 weeks. NEVER AGAIN,

I have been ordering my checks from Walmart for 15 years, but after this last experience I will never be going back.
They lost my checks in the mail and then told me it was my fault for not ordering trackable shipping. Everything sent in the mail has tracking... everything. And here's walmart over here trying to up charge me to add tracking to BANK CHECKS! Are you even serious?! So when my order just doesn't show up I'm told they will re-send but I have to wait another 3 weeks for them to come AND they charge me for the freaking tracking.
Worthless. Not ordering a single thing from Walmart.com ever again.

I tried to place an order and got no confirmation, in fact the message was my cart was emptied. I assumed the order did not go through and ordered through my bank instead. Next day I got an email saying it was processed. I tried to contact customer service twice with no reply. Terrible ordering website and terrible customer service!
